Question

I have an input field that is appended to a div tag through a location.href reload. How would select that input field using jQuery? If I add it to the page it won’t work, I’m assuming because the input isn’t loaded into the DOM yet.

$('#fileName1').focus(function() {
  alert('Handler for .focus() called.');
});

Answer 1

Use

$('#fileName1').live('focus', function() {
  alert('Handler for .focus() called.');
});
